Japanese Tanks... spectacular
Thought Id share some pics of the tanks out in the far east that my friend sent me.

I have a thing for spotlit tanks... I should note that these are Japanese tanks, they seem to have a thing for spotlights...

Yes there are some very impressive tanks for sure. I was however quite disappointed in this one though. It has so much potential but the coral scape looks like a fruit stand and unnatural the way it's divided into tables and stags. The reason I am even bothering to say anything is that this would have likely been my favorite. Just visualize how good this would look if they were mixed in together giving a much more natural feel to it. Beautiful corals though!!:eek:

^+1... I hate the 'coral garden' look. I prefer a more natural mix of corals anyhow...

I like it like that not natural but very planned and neat. Just a different look. |
well they said that the reason they did that is to make the lighting more natural for deep water corals (right side) vs high light corals (left side)...
anyways i like how it looks myself and its very thought out. :biggrin: |

Some gorgeous colors for sure and they really know how to highlight them with the proper spotlights :biggrin: |
I came off sounding really negative... I do like this tank, it's obviously well planned (and well taken care of!). Just not my thing, really. I wish I could find some spotlights though! I'd like a really focused beam to light just an island of rock in the center of a tank... :lol: I really need to quit looking at pictures of Japanese tanks.
